I'm not an expert on Brazilian football but I can't believe that such a big country, whose own league has gotten significantly better over the past few years, isn't producing tactically skilled coaches.

I mean Argentina and Uruguay are continuing to produce great tacticians despite their own leagues and football development in general being in much worse shape.

Coaching is still kind of an amateurish thing here, at least that's how I see it. The best ones have some experience coaching outside of Brazil, or are former players that also played on europe. And there's also the problem coaches here almost never get time to properly coach any team. Everyone wants the results immediately, no one wants to wait. Some teams have 3, 4 coaches during a year around here.

Pep is better than any brazilian coach. The nationalism arguement is stupid to me, makes no sense. It's probably going to be felipao, and nothing will change. He's not better than Mano, anyway.
